Hey, Yes it is physically separate with an iptable rules in the router to drop all internet connections from/to the camera ;). What i would like to achieve is to use the NAS for storage mainly, for both camera and home usage. After that, if the NAS itself include native app it could be...

Ah yes that is what i missed^^ You mean that the NAS will be used to access to the camera in fact, using Synology tool, but that is not necessarly what i would like to do, but yes i understand ;). Just to clarify, currently, there is one router with a vpn server running on it, the camera is...

Hello, Thanks for your reply. I tried to check the documentation of the DS220+ and it is not clear how the dual-ethernet is supposed to work. It seems possible to set differents IPs like it was separate networks. That behind said, what you said should also works with one network if the VPN...

Hello, i have a Dahua camera installed at home and it is connected to a VPN server installed on an old router. That means the camera do not have any acces to internet, and it is necessary to connect to the vpn and then access the camera. I am questionning myself on installing a NAS for home...

I tried a better thing, keep the camera connected with 192.168.100.208, connect my phone using wifi to 192.168.100.209. I was able to reach the camera. Then i tried to apply the same iptables rules to the phone, i lost internet connection AND lan access. Before that, i was able to ping my phone...

I use my ISP router with my PC to connect to the VPN of the Tomato router, then i can access to the interface of this router. Nothing except the camera is connected to this router. Even if i use my phone 4G to connect to the VPN, i cannot access to the camera. I tried the log of iptables but it...

Hello all, I just received the camera, i set everything like written on the wiki, but unfortunately i cannot access to it using the VPN... When i connect my computer to the internal lan of the router, i can reach the camera, but not through the VPN, could it be a problem on iptables...

Hi, I have to say i really liked your comparison with the cake story^^ You are absolutely right. And additionnaly to that, i will say, if you do not know how to close the door properly, don't buy any cake ;). To come back to the technical part, i just have to adapt the chain to be sure it is...

What i cannot understand is if it is that a bad idea to forward ports, how can you use the full potential of an ip camera through internet? I mean, if it is just to have a live view or local record on SD, it is not worth for home users. You have to let the camera communicate on some ports to...

Hum, ok, for the blocking rules, it seems that iptable -I works better thant iptable -A, i guess this is the same for opening ports. But is seems that 53 and 443 are already opened on WRT router, so, if i am right, i should only open 587 for mail because push notifications can goes through 443...

Yep it sounds good for using port, because, for example, when i configured the VPN server, it was not working until i forward 1194 on ISP box to WRT router and then an automatic iptable rules have been also created in the WRT, and then it worked. If it can works like that and is secured enough...

Hello all, I tried something with iptables to see the result but unfortunately it does not work: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 587 -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -s 192.168.100.208 -j DROP For the check i connected my laptop on the Tomato router with IP 192.168.100.208, before iptable rules...

Hum ok i think we said the same thing but it is my fault, in the drawing, ip 192.168.1.2 was the LAN ip not the WAN^^ So i did the modification, WAN still be 192.168.1.23 and is fixed and just in case also forced in ISP box using mac filter. LAN ip is now 192.168.100.2 and cam ip will be...

Ok so you mean, at the WRT router on Tomato, keep WAN settings with gateway of ISP box (192.168.1.1) to be able to reach the VPN, and then, separate the LAN by changing ip of the router with 192.168.100.2 for example and 192.168.100.x on cameras that's it? This means it will be necessary to...

@catcamstar: Do you mean change subnet of camera by 255.255.0.0 instead of 255.255.255.0 and then IP to 192.168.100.208 for example? This will still work with VPN and ISP box? Ok i will have a look for iptables on Tomato thanks :) @Whoaru99: This have to be done on the WRT54G router or on ISP...

Hello all, I am new in the IP cameras world and there are some things that i still don't understand, and for this first camera i would like to do things the proper way. I am living in a home and i would like to install one or two external cameras. The goal is to be able to check outside the...
